Trump’s IVF Executive Order: What You Need to Know

President Trump recently signed an executive order aiming to reduce the cost of in vitro fertilization (IVF). The order instructs the Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy to provide Trump with a list of policy recommendations aimed at protecting IVF access, as well as lowering out-of-pocket expenses and health plan costs.

It is positive to see national support for IVF, as 1 in 8 couples in the U.S. deal with fertility challenges. However, this executive order doesn’t necessarily indicate that a policy will be implemented soon or that any immediate changes are forthcoming. Time is of the essence when it comes to IVF, so if you’re considering starting your family now, it’s important to begin the process as soon as possible, as policies can take time to develop.
